Generally good. Convenient location, helpful staff, nice pool. The bathroom needs an uplift however - lots of black mould on the silicon around the shower detracts from an otherwise clean and comfortable room.
The hotel staff were wonderful and very helpful. The location was great for anyone that wants to be able to walk around the city and not have to drive.
The Suite we had overlooked the river, and was absolutely beautiful! The Staff were lovely and so very helpful in recommending their favorite places to eat, to visit, etc..
Our Suite was large and beautifully furnished. The Clayton was close to so many wonderful things.
One of the better buffet breakfasts with lots of gluten free options. Short walk to a major pedestrian street with lots of pubs, shops, and restaurants. Had a nice swimming pool for swimming laps.
This hotel is in a wonderful location. And the staff at the front were super helpful and very friendly. However, I had booked and paid for a "Deluxe Double room", and ended up with 3 beds, none of which were very comfortable. But the front desk staff actually more than made up for it with just their overall pleasant nature and recommendations for the city.
Great breakfast selection! Perfect location for walking to the main downtown area.

Huge thanks to Jonathan and his team for a great evening. The UCC BComm of 85 class really enjoyed. Both service and quality of what we ate and drank was 2nd to none.
Very central on the riverside and close to transport links, shops and restaurants. Room was well appointed and staff very helpful. Bit of early morning noise which could have been other guests . Would happily recommend and would stay again
